To make the long story short
My uncle is retiring overseas after 45+ years in New jersey and he left me all his guns including a pristine condition Valmet M62S AK-47 Variant(along with the Bayonet).
he had purchased this in the early 70s in NJ (long before all the Assault Ban BS on 1994) and was taken in the range only once with a total of about 90 rounds runned through it.
The rifle is exacly like the one shown below.
I very well understand that NJ mags are limited to 15 rounds only but I am very concerned about the flash hider/bayonet slot to the front of the rifle. That seems to be the
big no-no since it is a 2 strike evil characteristics right there. What would be my best best in making this rifle NJ Compliant? Can the flash hider/Bayo lug be easily removed
and install a regular muzzle break? Is the muzzle threaded. It seems that the pin is welded. I really don't want to ruin this rifle. The easiest modification I thought I can probably do
without much effort is to install a thumbhole one piece stock but the Muzzle will still be an issue. Do these rifles have interchangable parts with the regular AKs?
Thanks in advance
Mike
